Crash + Burn Lyrics

How would you like to be remembered?

Dodging out the crash and burn

I been living with a curse, living off the birds

For better or worse, I can never change

I'm down to earth, I caught my swerve

Too easy to get on my nerves

I put the pressure where it hurts

And I gotta fly 'fore I'm gone in a hearse

You know I deserve it (I deserve it, I deserve it)

Cuz the boy been working, soul been hurting

I know God gonna make me perfect

These words live if I die on verses

My work good 'cause I clock in early

Lately the water been murky

My city on fire, and they wearing my jersey

The last name James, but I know that I'm Worthy

It ain't no competition, I been ducking the opposition, tryna keep up my spots

Look at my compositions, I can make a lil proposition for a shot at the top

You can just cop a vision for the revenue benefits

Gotta walk with a chain, 'cause I'm heaven sent

I'm living content, but somehow I'm already dead, I'm

Dodging out the crash and burn

I been living with a curse, living off the birds

For better or worse, I can never change

I'm down to earth, I caught my swerve

Too easy to get on my nerves

I put the pressure where it hurts

And I gotta fly 'fore I'm put in a hearse

You know my work

Call me the GOAT without having to die

I keep it in when I'm fighting my pride

'Cause nobody win when the family cry

Word to my twin when the egos collide

I paint a pic, and then put on it on ice

Never gamble, but I'm betting on life

And I know my talent is right, so look at the words that I write

Shining bright with my lyrics, but you never gave me a light

I take a trip for the night, and when I come back, just know that I'm paying my price

Life is a roll of the dice, but if I get caught in the moment, I'm losing my edge

I'm losing content, but somehow I'm already dead

Dodging out the crash and burn

I been living with a curse, living off the birds

For better or worse, I can never change

I'm down to earth, I caught my swerve

Too easy to get on my nerves

I put the pressure where it hurts

And I gotta fly 'fore I'm gone in a

Stop hiding from life, live it

After all

The world is ending anyway.

I been living with wise

And if it don't come with a P, gotta keep it respectfully

A monopoly, i been stacking up my property

You gotta watch how you step to me

Y'all really telling me, that after everything I did, that you put them ahead of me?

I'm the enemy, every verse got a 20 to life and it come with a felony

On the real, this is getting ridiculous

I been breaking the ligaments off of this rap scheme pyramid

Don't try to play me, I'm with it, and I gotta dream, and I'll get to it

Finish it, Mortal Kombat with the images

I love to sit back and just reminisce

Had the vision since I was a lil kid, Uncle Phil in the back, on my fresh prince

I been gifted since the bad days

And love and money are the finer things

And I gotta art, and I've lit my spark

What you saying don't mean anything

You hate the player, and you hate the game, that perspective doesn't let you win a race

I been on both sides at the same time

Some of y'all really can't relate 'cause I applied the pressure

Living now, but I'm gon live forever

Through the words, I'm a heaven sent devil

Once I gotta passion, y'all not on my level

Want an example? I'll give you several

I keep it pushing, and I keep it player

I been show-timing like an '80s Laker

I'm a recreation of your rapper's favorite

Why the long faces?

Or maybe the world was just ending anyway

Today, we're here to celebrate the life of Mitchell Brown

We all know Mitchell to be many things to us

A friend, a family member, someone close to us

But above all else, we'll all remember him, as the greatest rapper of all time
